Catalyst Papers

Our Catalyst Papers initiative is designed to help faculty break “educating for democracy” into manageable parts by addressing what can be done within specific disciplines and departments. No particular hub on campus “owns” democracy, and TDI takes an across-the-curriculum-and-campus approach.

The first round of catalyst papers are done and published on-line as a special issue on higher education for the Journal of Public Deliberation. We’re thinking about Round II. If you are interested in writing a catalyst paper, contact us.
